Trump’s Jan 6 Judge Trial is Foreign-Born, BLM Apologist, Obama Donor, Who Has Over-Sentenced Jan 6 Prisoners.

Tanya Sue Chutkan, the US federal judge overseeing Donald Trump’s criminal case in Washington D.C., is an Obama appointee and donor, as well as an especially vocal Black Lives Matter (BLM) apologist who has now presided over many of the harshest over-sentences handed to Jan. 6 protestors. Chutkan, a 61-year-old born in Jamaica, also persistently tried to stymie the Trump administration between 2017 and 2021. Her husband Peter Krauthamer is also an Obama appointee.

Chutkan has prosecuted 38 people involved in the January 6th protests so far, with 19 sentences that “exceeded prosecutors’ recommendations.” Her rhetoric against the protestors was no less subdued. She argued:

“It has to be made clear that trying to violently overthrow the government, trying to stop the peaceful transition of power and assaulting law enforcement officers in that effort is going to be met with absolutely certain punishment.“

Chutkan has raged about the issue, claiming protesters, “soiled and defaced the halls of the Capitol and showed their contempt for the rule of law,” though her comments on Black Lives Matter were far more subdued. The D.C. judge called BLM rioters “people protesting, mostly peacefully, for civil rights,” referring to the widespread chaos and destruction in the summer of 2020 as: “People gathered all over the country last year to protest the violent murder by the police of an unarmed man.”

In 2017, Chutkan issued a restraining order against the Trump admin policy of prohibiting migrants from leaving detention facilities for abortions. She ruled immigration officials are required to transport migrants “promptly and without delay… to an abortion provider, in order to obtain any pregnancy or abortion-related medical care.”

The Obama judge also tried to block scheduled executions of rapists and murderers on death row, bizarrely arguing that allowing the executions would deprive the inmates of their ability to pursue challenges in the court.

UK Tories Enforce Diversity Quotas for New Members of Parliament.

The United Kingdom’s ‘Conservative’ Party has implemented new diversity quotas and guidelines for selecting candidates – would-be Members of Parliament (MPs). The targets include age as well as ethnicity and gender.

Diversity quotas are in place even before candidates are considered as the party’s “Sifting Committee,” which is responsible for sorting through applicants after applying for the position, must have specific characteristics:

“The Sifting Committee must comprise a minimum of one woman and one young person under the age of 30. The additional Association members of the Committee should reflect the different interests of the constituency, i.e. should have a balance of gender, age and ethnicity.”

After the initial sift, the Selection Committee must “recognise their responsibility” to ensure that candidates are chosen in a way that “displays diversity and variety and which has a due regard to the local profile of the constituency” and guarantees a balance of genders.

The selection rules also state that the process must be “inclusive and free from discrimination” and “fully acknowledge and embrace diversity,” except when considering female candidates, in which case “some degree of positive discrimination is permitted.” The rules add that anything considered “indirect discrimination” is prohibited; meaning, any requirement that could have a “disproportionate impact” on one group.

Former President Donald Trump highlighted the Conservative’s shift to the “far left” in an interview with Nigel Farage earlier this year. More recently, the party expelled a mayor for ‘repenting‘ after attending a Pride event.

WATCH: CIA Candidate Will Hurd Booed Off Stage After Trump Jab.

“Former” CIA man and ex-“Republican” Congressman Will Hurd was booed off stage at the Iowa GOP Lincoln Dinner on Friday night, after telling the audience he believed Donald Trump is running for president “to stay out of prison.”

Hurd’s ludicrous claim – which falls apart when considering that Trump’s legal woes only began in earnest when he cemented his frontrunner status in the Republican primary – was met by a chorus of boos. Hurd promptly left the stage afterwards, having claimed:

“I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, listen I know the truth, the truth is hard. But if we elected Donald Trump, we are willingly giving Joe Biden another four years in the White House and America can’t handle that.”

Donald Trump has been pulling ahead of Biden in national polls for a number of weeks, further ridiculing Hurd’s claims.

REVEALED: Facebook, Instagram Censored Americans After Biden Team ‘Outrage’.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan has revealed, in never-seen-before documents, that Mark Zuckerberg’s Facebook and Instagram platforms censored Americans and changed their content moderation policies “because of unconstitutional pressure from the Biden White House.”

Jordan cites the globalist former UK Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg – now President for Global Affairs at Meta Platforms – who wrote in an internal e-mail in April 2021:

“Just got off hour long call with Andy Slavitt [Senior Advisor to Biden]. There are some pretty serious – and sensitive (see last point) – issues we need to address… As an eg, he was outraged – not too strong a word to describe his reaction – that we did not remove this post which was third most highly ranked post in the data set we sent to him.”

The posts relate, in particular, to the U.S. government’s vaccine policies, with another newly uncovered e-mail revealing:

“We are facing continued pressure from external stakeholders, including the White House and the press, to remove more COVID-19 vaccine discouraging content. For example, we recently shared with the White House a list of the top 100 vaccine-related posts on FB in the U.S. for the week of 4/5-4/11. While authoritative information dominated the list, the White House was concerned that the #3 post was a vaccine discouraging humorous meme and they called on us to delete the meme.”

Jordan even posted the meme in question:

“On August 2, 2021, Facebook admitted it was going to change its policies because of pressure from the Biden White House,” Jordan wrote, in a Twitter thread on Thursday.

Charges DROPPED Against Dem Megadonor Sam Bankman-Fried.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has dropped campaign finance charges against alleged ‘crypto scammer’ Sam Bankman-Fried, who was accused of misusing customer deposits and who made $90 million in campaign contributions to around 300 predominantly left-wing political candidates or action committees (PACs).

Prosecutors argued the United States “mishandled” the process of extraditing Bankman-Fried from the Bahamas, writing a letter stating, “In keeping with its treaty obligations to the Bahamas, the government does not intend to proceed to trial on the campaign contributions count.”

Bankman-Fried, who had a net worth of around $26.5 billion at his peak, ranked behind only George Soros in donations to the Democrats last year. He also donated to some Republicans through what he described as ‘dark’ channels. He said in an interview:

“Reporters freak the f*** out if you donate to a Republican, because they’re all super liberal. And I didn’t want to have that fight, so I just made all the Republican [donations] ones dark.”

Bankman-Fried was the founder and former CEO of cryptocurrency exchange FTX but resigned last November after the company’s collapse, costing customers and lenders billions of dollars. He was subsequently arrested and released after paying a $250 million bond: the largest in American history.

He is due to face seven charges in October this year, including accusations that he defrauded customers and lenders to FTX.

A U.S. Government Shutdown Looms.

Members of both political parties anticipate a federal government shutdown as early as September over the U.S. government’s budget for 2024. The GOP is proposing a number of new bills that would slash the federal budget by up to $115 billion, returning government spending to its 2022 levels. Democrats, however, are already making it clear that they would reject any attempts to cut government spending.

Negotiators from both parties are increasingly incapable of finding a consensus over the Appropriations bill, which is responsible for funding the Education Department, the Labor Department, the Department of Health, and more. Republicans are also pushing to cut funding to other agencies, including the Consumer Product Safety Commission and the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Leading Democrats are explicit in their willingness to shut the government down in response to Republican spending plans. Democratic Chair of the Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee and Senator from Montana, Jon Tester, recently stated: “If you want to shut down, we will shut down. If they want to get the bills done, we’ll get the bills done.”

A government shutdown could disrupt the working schedules of up to 800,000 federal workers and potentially have wider ramifications for the U.S. economy, interfering with important federal services, such as food safety inspections and the Internal Revenue Service.

Notably, a survey from Rasmussen Reports found the majority of Americans would prefer a government shutdown to cut federal spending than avoiding a government shutdown to authorize higher federal expenditure.

DeSantis Chief Admits They’ve Spent Too Much on ‘Ineffective’ Campaign.

Ron DeSantis’s campaign manager, Generra Peck, admitted this weekend that the Florida Governor’s anemic bid for the Republican nomination has been “ineffective” and wasted too much money. The comments, ironically, came during yet another billionaire donor summit at the lavish Stein Erisken Lodge in Utah, setting the campaign back a further $87,000. A single night at the cheapest room in the hotel is listed at $666.

Price on hotel website.

Peck told a roughly 70-stong reception of high dollar donors that the team would be slimming down and adopting an “insurgent” posture, as the group quaffed cocktails on the terrace adjacent to Utah’s famous Twin Peaks.

Team DeSantis has already started firing staff, as their once well-financed operation suffers a cash crunch and continues to slide in the polls. Their latest gimmick, once again, comes right out of the Trump campaign playbook.

“Let Ron be Ron,” said Nick Iarossi, a lobbyist-fundraiser present at the meeting, aping the 2017 Trump campaign staff book title “Let Trump be Trump.”

“That’s what got him here. That’s what made him the leader that he is in Florida. We’re going back to our basics on all of this,” he added.

The DeSantis team has already attempted multiple reboots, without success. Prominent boosters of the Florida Governor, including Fox bosses Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch, already look set to drop him in favor of another Donald Trump alternative, such as Glenn Youngkin, with sources saying they can “smell a loser”.

DeSantis Proxies ‘Crushed’ on Twitter Asked Campaign for Elon Intervention.

Supporters of Ron DeSantis have admitted they are losing to MAGA Republicans on social media and even reached out to the official campaign with the hopes of having Twitter owner Elon Musk intervene on their behalves.

DeSantis fanatic Bill Mitchell announced on a small Twitter Spaces this week:

“I’ve been talking to Bryan Griffin… we’re really getting crushed out here on social media… you know I don’t know what kind of contacts you’ve got with Elon [Musk] or something like that, but you know could you guys do something to sort of… help to support us out here.”

It’s unclear what an intervention from Musk could look like, though some have speculated that Mitchell is openly calling for censorship of his political opponents.

One instance of Mitchell himself “getting crushed” was witnessed earlier this week after he launched a Twitter poll asking his followers: “Should President Trump disavow misogynist [Editor of The National Pulse Raheem Kassam] for constantly using the c-word in his posts while attacking DeSantis supporters.” Mitchell lost overwhelmingly, with 78 percent of voters answering “no.”

DeSantis Drops MORE Delegates, Hits ANOTHER All-Time Low.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s campaign is already “on the brink,” and now faces another humiliating weekend of news after his GOP delegate number forecast plummeted to another all-time low of just 259, with the governor losing nearly a hundred votes in the past week alone. The news comes as yet another poll, this time from Harris-Harvard, shows DeSantis pulling in just 12 percent of support.

Florida’s Governor lost even more delegates over the past week in a direct DeSantis-Trump head-to-head forecast, collapsing from 530 last week to just 346 this week – representing a catastrophic loss of over 1000 delegate votes since the end of February this year. Former President Donald Trump collected the majority of the votes, and is now predicted to receive a whopping 2,116 delegate votes in the full-field forecast and 2,110 votes in the DeSantis-Trump head-to-head forecast.

Only 1,234 votes are needed to guarantee the Republican presidential nomination.

DeSantis has already taken to shedding staff in an effort to save his floundering presidential campaign after his campaign has hitherto failed to gain any real grassroots support. He has now begun parroting Democrat lines about Jan 6th in order to give him a boost in the polls, to little avail.

FBI’s Burisma Cover-Up Swung 2020 for Joe Biden, Evidence Suggests.

The FBI’s failure to investigate Joe and Hunter Biden’s blatant Ukrainian bribery scheme appears to be prima facie evidence that the tax payer funded bureau willfully deceived the American public in order to place the elder Biden in the White House.

This week saw the release of FD-1023, an unclassified but long hidden FBI document in which a source described to the agency how Burisma chief executive Mykola Zlochevsky bribed Joe and Hunter Biden with millions of dollars.

The Daily Mail summarized the contents best, revealing:

  • ZIochevsky ‘didn’t want to pay the Bidens and says he was ‘pushed to pay’ them’;
  • Asked whether Hunter or Joe told him to retain Hunter on the board, Zlochevsky replied: ‘They both did’; 
  • The source asked why Burisma didn’t just ‘pay some attorney $50,000’ to fight Shokin’s investigation in Ukraine, to which Zlochevsky replied that ‘he/Burisma would likely lose the trial because he could not show that Burisma was innocent’;
  • When asked how he would  ‘explain suspicious wire transfers’, he responded that he ‘did not send any funds directly to the ‘Big Guy’ (which CHS understood was a reference to Joe Biden)’;
  • He added that it would take ’10 years to find the records (ie illicit payments to Joe Biden)’;
  • In a follow-up call, Zlochevsky boasted that Shokin had been fired, there was no longer an investigation into Burisma, and ‘nobody would find out about his financial dealings with the Bidens’;
  • He added that, as back-up to his claims, ‘he has many text messages and a total of 17 ‘recordings’ that show he was coerced to make the payments’.

The investigation mentioned relates directly to then-former-Vice President Joe Biden’s open admission to having used U.S. government loans as leverage by which to have Ukraine’s prosecutor investigating Burisma fired.

FD-1023 was only shown to members of the House Oversight Committee after FBI boss Christopher Wray was issued a subpoena. Senator Chucck Grassley’s public release of the document brings it out for the first time – infuriating the FBI, whose failure to investigate the source’s allegations now looks like the most serious case of election interference in the United States in decades.
